Getting FREE LEGO With The New LEGO Insiders Program
Рет қаралды 147,698
Күн бұрынToday I'm scanning every single one of my LEGO instruction manuals. LEGO has done away with their VIP program and has introduced the new LEGO Insiders Membership which is exactly the same as the VIP program in all the ways that matter. The one interesting addition to LEGO Insiders is now you can register your LEGO sets by scanning QR codes included on all LEGO instruction manuals since 2018. You can even earn rewards points by scanning these codes which can be used for rewards on LEGO's website including money off your next LEGO purchase.

lol, love it! I think it is only worth if you do buy a lot of Lego. But if you can afford a lot of Lego you probably don't need free points. Hopefully the redeem points stay around for a while as I slowly open and build my old sets.
@BrickTsar 10 ай бұрын
It’s amazing how much worse the in app camera use is. You showed your work. Your conclusion is correct. I expected more points but so many sets from last 5 years don’t have QR codes. It the QR codes don’t work (not redeemed but don’t go to same page on website). I did find one that pulled up the wrong set. That was probably the most interesting thing in the hours I put in to checking all the instructions. I ended up just under 650 sets and would be there but I got the sealed sets left. Is this a ploy for us to open all out sets?
@countrabricksbuildcraze8916 10 ай бұрын
LoL 😆😅 no don't open the set s just to scan the code ..just check if some one s saling the same booklet .as the unopened set s you got. Scanning is prity quick. Only. Problem for me is. Every box I have flattened. An booklet s are in each flattened box. Some in boxe s I not flattened. So going thru every box then. The.. 5 big boxe s of flattened boxe s. Next. 😊

I also save everything but I’m not getting that math problem step; there’s only 2 steps for me. Scan, click earn rewards and done! Problem I have is many prints don’t have a barcode. The most points I’ve ever had is 89,000 and I was only able to use multiple VIP codes in store, not online. In store you could keep using VIP codes to make the set free, they just wanted to know how many points you wanted to use and don’t need a code.

@@rickma6363 Are you sure about each booklet having a unique QR code? I highly doubt this, since the QR code is printed, not a sticker, so that would imply a unique print for at least that page having the QR code in each booklet, which would be a complete nightmare and very costly to manage. So I would not expect to be able to scan more than one of each set, otherwise it would also be possible to scan a single set multiple times.

15.384 cents per booklet in the USA. Do they actually reward you for each of the same set? Does 20 of the same set, all scanned, really add up to 400 points? If so, than why not just scan the exact same code 2 million times? I don't have time for that.

I just bought a $110 Lego set (the tranquil garden set). The fact that this set nets me the same amount of points as a $10 tiny set is atrocious. They need to make bigger sets worth more points and smaller sets worth less, otherwise this “rewards program” is just a giant waste of time. It’s all wrong.
